The magic of machine learning The machine learning technologies in the M1 chip open up a world of possibilities for Mac apps. These e‑cores are the most efficient place to run lightweight tasks, allowing the performance cores to tackle the most demanding workloads. And create stunning images in Adobe Lightroom with unprecedented speed and responsiveness.įour efficiency cores Four efficiency cores deliver outstanding performance for everyday tasks using just a tenth of the power. Record, mix, and master professional-quality music in Logic Pro with scores of tracks, plug‑ins, and virtual instruments. Compile in Xcode in significantly less time. It combines four performance cores and four efficiency cores that work together to tackle demanding multithreaded tasks, resulting in a quantum leap in performance at a fraction of the power - and a significant boost to battery life.įour performance cores Our high-performance core is the world‘s fastest CPU core when it comes to low-power silicon 3 - and M1 has four of them combining their efforts for a massive boost in performance.

8-core CPU The 8-core CPU in M1 is the highest-performing CPU we’ve ever built, by far.
